How?
How on earth could anyone dump these guys? How is it possible for a human to be that way?

Right now I’m looking at those dog litter/potty things because I’m gone so long and the neighbor kid is going back to school in a week. Anyone ever use those? If so, any suggestions, recommendations, advice on products to steer clear from? These would only be used during the day while I’m gone, not as an alternative to walking...I’m not an idiot. I know dogs need to be exercised and walked. I do need something for the times when I’m not here and they gotta go and can’t wait.
I don’t want to do crate training because they aren’t supposed to be in the crate that long. I did crate training with Pandora and it does work well but I had a job at the time that allowed me to be home more often or take her with me plus I had roommates who would help out. But I can’t leave a dog in a crate for 9 hours. No.
So, the only other solution, since I do not have a fenced yard, is to get one of those litter things. I’ve seen some with pellets, (which I really don’t like), and some with fake grass. Just wondering if they actually work because they seem kind of expensive. And I don’t want a product that I have to keep buying things for; I want something that I can just clean and not have to refill with more money.
I am looking at one product but man does it cost a lot. I guess it may be worth it in the end.
Plus it’s going to be weird to train them that they can go inside the house when they’ve learned so quickly that they shouldn’t. Gah.
